Kim Molitor of Windward Wealth Strategies talked about what she’s learned about spending and saving money in a recent Women Magazine article, The frugal spending habits of the wealthy(p. 28-29). The article discusses the common habits of wealthy people—habits that helped them build their wealth.

In the article, she outlines three steps to developing a plan to build wealth and offers advice on how to combat those daily spending habits—like ordering morning lattes—that could eat your potential savings in the long run.
